PycoClaw brings a full OpenClaw-class AI agent to ESP32 boards using MicroPython, offering one‑click browser flashing, a complete agent loop (recursive tool calls, streaming SSE), and direct hardware control (GPIO, LVGL, CAN). It includes persistent hybrid memory, a ScriptoHub skills marketplace, and a web IDE (Scripto Studio) to modify and chat with agents live on $5 microcontroller hardware.
A deep, long-form explainer of WebPKI that describes how HTTPS depends on certificate authorities, certificate types (DV/OV/EV), and mechanisms like Certificate Transparency, and examines practical problems — expiration, revocation, CA incidents (e.g. Trustico, Entrust), and the difficulty of revoking large numbers of certs — plus mitigation ideas such as tighter CA restrictions, ACME renewal practices, and improved auditing. The post is based on months of research and aims to map the social, technical, and political complexities of the web’s public key infrastructure.
